Yes I have- it was soe time ago too.
but to be honest I thought L.Bond's other book 'Vortex' was better.

I didnt know L. Bond was South korean!! I thought he was english..hmmm

THe part i rermember the most from the book, is when the N.K. army does a full assault across the DMZ- which is being gaurded by Americans- of course the Americans dont stand a chance. THat one chapter how a Platoon is just cut to pieces and the officer survives by hiding under some dead bodies... very scary stuff.

THen a mass evacuation of Soul- with panic'd civ's heading south and Soilders heading north creating nasty trafic snarls..
I believe in the end of the book the US does a normandy type landing up the west coast- high north - cutting of supply to NK units in the south..

Well thats what i remember -- ill try to dig it out of my book pile and re-read.

Yes you will see some of the areas in the book in the game. E.G. Malibu West and the NKR attack on this US postion. Smile

The book mirrored the 1991 Gulf war tactics of placing an empty marine fleet off the coast as a diversion with a land flanking assault. Written years before the war and very interesting in the way it mirrored later tactics.
